Hadrian’s Wall<\/strong><\/p>\n

when first the pale, dun sun shone down
\nand illuminated my rose-tinged cheeks
\nit filtered through translucent skin
\nso all who gathered round could see
\nthe wild Pictish child in me<\/p>\n

I fashioned snakes and charmed them near
\nalarming young and old, alike
\njust my way; I did not ken
\nthat such exertions would imply
\nwhat a Pictish child was I<\/p>\n

the romans, as they would, amassed
\nfirst to consult and then compel
\nthe raising of a barrier
\ndesigned to mitigate unease
\nand curb my Pictish tendencies<\/p>\n

uncertain as to what I\u2019d done
\nI tried to breach the palisade
\nbut backs were turned, no help was lent
\nso I withdrew, plainly reviled
\na sad, neglected Pictish child<\/p>\n

and now I stand, an outlier
\ndulled by exile, smote by shame
\ntoo late to don another guise
\nI\u2019ll remain as I\u2019ve been styled
\nrelentlessly a Pictish child<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

All Things Are One\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Here lies a faint sigh
\nplanted in damp soil,
\na pallid breath,
\na wish undone<\/p>\n

Sieved fingers in water
\nthe satin cool flows clear,
\na vital force
\nlikened to none<\/p>\n

Red wing on a fence
\n\u2014the swoosh of dried wheat grass\u2014
\nup-soars in flight
\nthrough dappled sun<\/p>\n

The candles flicker,
\nand gutter in pale dawn,
\nmist is rising
\nthe night is done<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s the reason why
\nthe beast, the best, give way
\n\u2014before each soul,
\nall things are one\u2014<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
